Any sad classical songs out there?? I'm interested!

[trixstar]

i'm looking for some sad classical songs.. something that strikes the heart. I'm leaning towards piano or the violin. Does anyone have any favorite classical songs that sounds depressing?

You're better off looking for game/anime soundtracks.

Lots of sad sounding classicalesque stuff.
